“You know what really grinds my gears? The Mac community. Don’t get me wrong – I love Macs. In fact, I’m actually writing this on one. Yet, the idea that buying a certain kind of computer is my ticket into some community is kind of ridiculous. It’s a freakin’ computer, not a movement.”

Yet, the idea that buying a certain kind of computer is my ticket into some community is kind of ridiculous.

It’s a freakin’ computer, not a movement.

You Mac fanboys can rave about how awesome Apple is and how evil Microsoft is, but the truth is they are more alike than you think. They are both huge corporations and they are both after one thing: money. Apple’s CEO, Steve Jobs, isn’t any more of an innovator than Bill Gates is.

So quit going on about the Mac community and about how evil Microsoft is. It’s getting old.

Those commercials are pretty funny, though.
